Description

Delicious and nutritious high protein bagels paired with a creamy herb-infused cream cheese spread.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 egg
  • Variety of seeds (like sesame or flaxseed)
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • Fresh herbs (like chives or dill)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Mix ingredients in a bowl: combine flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk yogurt and egg, then combine wet and dry ingredients to form dough.
  3. Knead the dough gently on a floured surface for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
  4. Form the bagels by dividing the dough, rolling each into a ball, and poking a hole through the center.
  5. Top with seeds, place on a parchment-lined baking tray, and brush with a beaten egg if desired.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Prepare the cream cheese spread by whipping cream cheese with fresh herbs, salt, and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve bagels warm with a generous amount of cream cheese spread.

Notes

Feel free to customize the cream cheese with your favorite herbs or spices.
